Fabrizio Romano has claimed on Twitter that Feyenoord have Arsenal winger Reiss Nelson on their list after missing out on Manchester United teenager Amad Diallo.

What’s the story?

Romano has reported on Twitter that Feyenoord wanted to sign Diallo on loan from Premier League giants United before deadline day.

However, the 19-year-old winger suffered a muscle injury during training at United.

So, the Ivory Coast international winger will stay at United and will not leave this summer.

Feyenoord have Arsenal winger Nelson on their list as a potential alternative, according to well-known and well-respected journalist Romano.

Reiss Nelson to Feyenoord?

Nelson is not a key member of the Arsenal first-team squad, and a loan move to Feyenoord would not be a bad idea.

The 21-year-old would get the chance to play more than he would at the Gunners.

The Eredivisie is a very good domestic league where the English youngster could grow and develop as a footballer.

Nelson was loan at Hoffenheim in Germany in 2018-19, so he would not be fazed at the prospect of playing in a foreign league.

Nelson has played just 19 minutes in the Premier League so far this season.

During the 2020-21 season, the winger played 70 minutes in the league, and scored one goal and provided one assist in four Europa League appearances.
